Deaths in Syria are on the increase and the stories about their treatment is getting worse, those who are protesting and those who aren't.
This poem was made a while back but still holds relevant for Syria and other countries still suffering.
Keep them in your prayers this Jumm'ah and every day that follows until they are free from this oppressive regime In sha Allah (God-willing).
This video follows on from other re-makes of "Why i hate religion, but love Jesus" videos, but instead focuses on education.
The poet, Suli Breaks, in no way bashes seeking an education, but rather asks us to question our purpose for pursuing further education and gaining degrees. A reflective piece worth 6:36 minutes of your time :)

The youtube video i'm posting is highly popular on facebook & twitter this week, and is a poetic response to the highly circulating video "Why i hate religon but love Jesus," which has since been re-made by many others.
Asalamu Alaikum (peace be upon you) and i hope everyone is having a blessed Jumm'ah :)
The lecture i wanted to share today is Procrastination by AbdulBary Yahya, who's quickly become one of my favourite to listen for motivation as well as having a beautiful voice for recitation of the Qur'an Ma sha Allah. This is definitely one of my weak points which i'm striving to eliminate and in his delivery, it felt like it was just me being addressed, and i think others may feel the same.
He shares practical tips to help those procrastinating , as well as reminders of the value of our time which is something that can never be gained once it's gone.
